Input / Output

We can write more interesting programs when we can

exchange information with the outside world.

Problem with the outside world: there’s a lot of

Disk Inventory X

Use the Sketch

Folder as a

gateway to the

outside world.

Use Sketch →Add File… to make a file

available to your sketch, or drop the file into the

sketch folder directly.

Any files created by the sketch will be left in the

sketch folder.

1. Reading and

writing images

PImage loadImage( String filename ) { ... }

A built-in function that takes the name of a file

as a String parameter, finds that file in your

sketch folder, and tries to import it as an image.

Returns an object of type PImage.

High-level PImage operations

PImage img;

void setup() {

size( 800, 800 );

img = loadImage( “some_image.jpg" );

void draw() {

background( 255 );

imageMode( CORNER );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

image( img, width - img.width, height - img.height );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

imageMode( CENTER );

image( img, width/2, height/2, 250, 250 );

PImage img;

void setup()

size( 800, 800 );

void draw()

background( 255 );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

High-level PImage operations

Read the image into the running

sketch.

High-level PImage operationsPImage img;

void setup(){

size( 800, 800 );

void draw(){

background( 255 );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

Draw the image at the given

coordinates, at its natural size.

void setup() {

size( 800, 800 );

void draw() {

background( 255 );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

Draw the image at the given

coordinates, scaled.

void setup() {

size( 800, 800 );

void draw() {

background( 255 );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

Ask the image for its

dimensions.

void setup() {

size( 800, 800 );

void draw() {

background( 255 );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

Apply a colour wash to all images.

void setup() {

size( 800, 800 );

void draw() {

background( 255 );

noTint();

image( img, 0, 0 );

tint( 255, 120, 120 );

Change the anchor point of the

image.

PImage img = loadImage( "some_image.jpg" );

void setup()

size( 800, 800 );

Image no-nos

Don’t try to load the image in the global variable

declaration. This will usually fail.

void draw()

PImage img = loadImage( "some_image.jpg" );

image( img, 0, 0 );

Image no-nos

Don’t load images in draw(). This won’t break the

program, but it will work much harder than necessary.

Load the image once in setup().

Standard image idiom

Standard image idiomGlobal variable to hold image.

Load image in setup().

Standard image idiomGlobal variable to hold image.

Load image in setup().

Use image in draw().

You can also copy a region out of a source image, and

scale it to any rectangle in the sketch window.

copy( img, sx, sy, sw, sh, dx, dy, dw, dh );

The source image to copy pixels

A rectangle of pixels in the source

image. Just like the arguments in a

call to rect()

A rectangle of pixels in the sketch window.

Again, just like a call to rect()

(sx, sy) sw

(dx, dy) dw

Writing imagesSeveral ways to do this. Easiest is to take a

screenshot.

void save( String filename ) { ... }

void saveFrame() { ... }

void saveFrame( String name_template ) { ... }

Save the contents of the sketch window to an

image with the given file name.

Same as above, but include a counter in the saved

file name. Useful for animations.

void keyPressed()

if( key == 's' ) {

save( "screen.png" );

a grid of pixels.

Vector illustration: represented

using geometric paths.

shape()

PShape tiger;

void setup()

size( 500, 500 );

tiger = loadShape( "tiger.svg" );

void draw()

shape( tiger, 0, 0 );

The PShape class has a disableStyle()

method that forces the SVG to be drawn with

the current fill and stroke settings.

void draw() {

background( 255 );

if( keyPressed ) {

tiger.disableStyle();

fill( 255, 0, 0 );

noStroke();

} else {

tiger.enableStyle();

shape( tiger, 0, 0 );

Writing illustrations

Processing can export any drawing to PDF or

SVG (PDF is nicer). But the functionality isn’t

built-in—you need to request it.

import processing.pdf.*;

“Import directive”: make all the

functionality in the named library

available in this sketch

import processing.pdf.*;

void setup()

beginRecord( PDF, "output.pdf" );

// Draw something here

endRecord();

Use beginRecord() and endRecord() to copy

all drawing commands into an external file.

Image: alexpoole.info

boolean recording = false;

void draw() {

if( recording ) {

beginRecord( PDF, "output.pdf" );

// Draw as usual

if( recording ) {

endRecord();

recording = false;

void keyPressed() {

if( key == 's' ) {

recording = true;

3. Reading and writing

Marley was dead: to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. The register of his burial was signed by the clergyman, the clerk, the undertaker, and the chief mourner. Scrooge signed it: and Scrooge's name was good upon 'Change, for anything

Mind! I don't mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors

Scrooge knew he was dead? Of course he did. How could it be otherwise? Scrooge and he were partners for I don't know how many years. Scrooge was his sole executor, his sole administrator, his sole assign, his sole residuary legatee, his sole friend a

The mention of Marley's funeral brings me back to the point I started from. There is no doubt that Marley was dead. This must be distinctly understood, or nothing wonderful can come of the story I am going to relate. If we were not perfectly convince

Scrooge never painted out Old Marley's name. There it stood, years afterwards, above the warehouse door: Scrooge and Marley. The firm was known as Scrooge and Marley. Sometimes people new to the business called Scrooge

Oh! But he was a tight-fisted hand at the grind- stone, Scrooge! a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner! Hard and sharp as flint, from which no steel had ever struck out generous fire; secret, and self

External heat and cold had little influence on Scrooge. No warmth could warm, no wintry weather chill him. No wind that blew was bitterer than he, no falling snow was more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to entreaty. Foul weather d

Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, with gladsome looks, "My dear Scrooge, how are you? When will you come to see me?" No beggars implored him to bestow a trifle, no children asked him what it was o'clock, no man or woman ever once in all hi

But what did Scrooge care? It was the very thing he liked. To edge his way along the crowded paths of life, warning all human sympathy to keep its distance, was what the knowing ones call "nuts" to Scrooge.

Once upon a time -- of all the good days in the year, on Christmas Eve -- old Scrooge sat busy in his counting-house. It was cold, bleak, biting weather: foggy withal: and he could hear the people in the court outside go wheezing up and down, beating t

The door of Scrooge's counting-house was open that he might keep his eye upon his clerk, who in a dismal little cell beyond, a sort of tank, was copying letters. Scrooge had a very small fire, but the clerk's fire was so very much smaller that it looke

"A merry Christmas, uncle! God save you!" cried a cheerful voice. It was the voice of Scrooge's nephew, who came upon him so quickly that this was the first intimation he had of his approach.

Plain text is the “default” mode of information storage and

communication. Being able to work with text gives us

access to large amounts of real-world data.

Reading text

String[] loadStrings( String filename ) { ... }

Reading text from a file can be quite painful in many

programming languages. Processing keeps it simple:

Load a text file from the sketch folder. Break it up into

lines and return an array of Strings, one per line.

Breaking up long lines

String[] splitTokens( String line ) { ... }

A line in a file may contain lots of individual chunks of

data separated by whitespace. We’d like to break lines

into words, just as we broke files into lines.

Turn a line of text into an array of “words” (any non-

whitespace characters separated by whitespace).

(Note that join() can reassemble individual strings into

a single result.)

String s = " Marley was dead: to begin with. ";

String[] toks = splitTokens( s );

printArray( toks );

[0] "Marley"

[1] "was"

[2] "dead:"

[3] "to"

[4] "begin"

[5] "with."

Writing text

We know we can use println() to send any text to the

console.

A similar mechanism allows us to create objects that

stand in for text files. Sending those objects println()

messages puts text into the file.

PrintWriter createWriter( String filename ) { ... }

Create an object that can output text to a file.

PrintWriter pw = createWriter( "output.txt" );

pw.println( "Hello" );

pw.println( mouseX );

pw.println( PI );

pw.println( "THE END" );

pw.flush();

pw.close();

Idiom for writing text

pw.println( PI );

pw.flush();

pw.close();

Create an object to

write to.

pw.println( PI );

pw.flush();

pw.close();

Send some text to

the writer object.

pw.println( PI );

pw.flush();

pw.close();

Send the data out to permanent

storage and close the file.

Reasons to write text

Logging: Create a permanent record of the behaviour

of the program to review later.

Persistence: Store information about the program’s

state in an external file so that the sketch can restart

with that state later.

Workflow: create text output that can be read by

another program for further processing.
